Abstract:
Recent efforts to elucidate mechanisms of posttranscriptional gene regulation have resulted in the description of both cis- and trans-acting factors which affect the stability and translational efficiency of specific mRNAs. Here we summarise some of the concepts in this field, with particular attention to recently discovered protein/RNA interactions involving the human androgen receptor mRNA. Such systems are of interest for their potential as targets for the modulation of protein production.
